The Original practice of facial reflexology.

The difference in Dien Chan & normal hand or foot reflexology is that where there are 1-2 maps of the body on the hands & feet there are over 20maps on the human face.

The way these maps layer over each other is where the “magic” of Dien Chan comes in & the reason it is called multireflexology. These maps & the areas that layer over each other allow us to make connections between different areas of the body that otherwise would appear unrelated.

Why are the connections between body parts important in Dien Chan?

Dien Chan works on principals of balance in Yang Yin energies in the body. It works under the understanding that any symptom, illness or experience you have in the body is your body attempting to communicate with you about the imbalance.

By following these connections, we are able to follow the imbalance & understand where the imbalance is happening on a deeper level within the body. This means that we are able to treat the imbalance at its core & so return the body to its natural state of homeostasis or balance & when we do that the symptoms will begin to disappear.

It also follows Herrings Law of Cure, stating that as symptoms appear in the body, they will initially start at the outside & top of the body & work their way down & deeper in the body. So when those symptoms start to disappear they will do so in the reverse order to what they have appeared, the most recent or newest symptoms ceasing first, al the way back to the ones that have been around for the longest. The longer a symptoms has been around the longer it will take for it to disappear during the treatment process.

Dien Chan literally translates to the diagnose & treat at the same time. It means that through the treatment process we will begin to understand the problem. This can be an amazing tool for predicting symptoms to come that may not have physically shown up yet.

An example of this showed up during my training. A client I was practising on for my assessment came in with knee & hip pain. Through the course of the treatment we were able to determine that it was all connected to the gallbladder. This client did not come in for follow up & we found out 6months later that she was admitted to hospital with severe pancreatitis & needed to have emergency surgery to have her gallbladder removed due to ongoing gallstones.

Unlike western medicine Dien Chan seeks to understand what is at the root cause of the imbalance within the body & treat the imbalance itself rather than medicating or bandaiding symptoms.

What is involved in a Dien Chan treatment?

Dien Chan uses a range of specially designed tools, based on Yang Yin principles to treat imbalance in the body. A treatment with us involves an initial consultation & treatment discussing symptoms, history & what you hope to gain from the treatment.

After the initial discussion we will then move into the actual treatment, which may include working directly on the area of the body that is experiencing the symptom, as well as working on the whole bodies nervous system, by working on the back, hands & feet.

The facial reflexology portion of the treatment itself may include reflex drainage to help stimulate the lymphatic drainage in the whole body, pressure points on the face that have specific effects & general clearing in either yang or yin using the specialised rollers.

What can you work on with Dien Chan?

There is no end to the things that Dien Chan can help with, essentially, any symptoms or experience that you have within the body. You can use Dien Chan with the treatment of pain & other physical symptoms, or for aesthetics like scars, wrinkles, blemishes.
